Does the imam say takbir when performing sujud al-sahw after remembering it?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: If the imam prays five rak'ahs in the Zuhr prayer and says the taslim, and then after a short time he remembers the sujud al-sahw, does he say takbir, saying Allahu Akbar, or not?

Answer:
He says takbir for the prostration and takbir for rising from it. When he prostrates, he says takbir, and when he rises from the prostration, he says takbir, exactly like the prostration in the prayer.
